Launch of IFIA-ABIPIR Startups Program, Brazil-India Connection

IFIA and ABIPIR, in collaboration with their institutional partners, including Hub Inovativa, Founders Institute Brazil, Iguassu Valley, Conecta International Business Consultancy, Parimpacto, and Iguassu Angels, are delighted to extend an invitation to all those who are part of a startup team, angel investors, part of a venture capital group, own a company or are affiliated with a government that currently practices or is contemplating open innovation. We invite you to join us for the live launch of the inaugural phase of the “IFIA-ABIPIR Startups Internationalization and Connection Program.” The program’s primary objective is to facilitate the linkage between Brazilian and Indian startups, aiming to identify potential business collaborations and investment opportunities.
As we approach the launch of this program, which heralds a significant shift in how startups perceive the internationalization process and their interactions with fellow startups, it is important to recognize that they will begin to view one another as prospective business allies rather than mere competitors to be conquered. This initial pilot project will feature the participation of 10 Indian startups and 10 Brazilian startups. Its purpose is to refine the execution model and, by 2024, expand the involvement to encompass startups from diverse nations, thereby creating the world’s largest community of startups. This expansion aims to enhance the value of businesses, exert a positive impact on the entire operational landscape, foster job creation, augment income, contribute to tax revenue, and enhance the quality of life through innovative solutions targeting the challenges across various sectors of society.

You can access the live launch event in India on October 5, 2023, at 6:30 PM Indian Standard Time (IST), and in Brazil on the same date at 02:00 PM Brazilian Time (BRT) through the following YouTube links:
